    Question ...

    Does anyone know where I can get the album cover art for like beatport tracks? I have used discogs, but they do not have all of them. I also try going to the record label sites but most do not have them. ugh.

    I am really into the cover flow from iTunes. Most tracks update, but not all. The blanks are driving me nuts. I like the complete cover flow. Thank you in advance.

      uhh not sure but Juno has the cover art to almost everything they have. Just save the image, I've never used iTunes and I dont have an ipod, so not sure if the images are the same kind / format..plus beatport has a lot more to offer than juno imo. I tried.

          This place also carries pics of albums but they're the size of avatars.

            You might try....

            albumart.org

            Also, here is related link.


            These may or may not help, but I think you already know that youre going to have a bit of trouble since most of the tunes you are probably looking for arent as popular as your favorite Britney Spears Album.

            So being the creative genuis you are, you could always make your own and of course share them.

            Great topic by the way. Album art gallery might be a good feature that Kamal could add to the board. Hmm....

                cool will try and thank you.

                A lot of the tracks I get come from beatport, so yeah we are talking small world when it comes to top 40. Beatport has very small images, but in cover flow it looks awful. It is pretty sweet to track through as if you were flipping your vinyl. I got some good ones off Juno & discogs.

                  Connect your audience to the media, music, and sports they love with Gracenote's metadata solutions.


                  it's the biggest onine database for album info. when you pop a cd in your computer and it pulls out the names of the songs, most of the time, it queries this database
                  now that I think about it, I don't know if it has album art.

                  I think Itunes and windows media player use these

                      well it should be because I know that Itunes get's it from somewhere, must be it
                      anyway, just look it up, it's cool enough by itself

                          ^^^ true.

                          i just got a hard-on using cover flow in full screen mode. OMG!

                          It actually adds a human touch back into digital music. It is so binary be default, with graphics it just adds the *umpf.

                          /puts pants back on.
